LUCKNOW:The supporters of the three expelled BSP leaders who had launched an indefinite
dharna against the expulsion of R K Choudhary, Barkhu Ram Varma and K P Singh are
confident that there leaders would be taken back into the party fold .

After several attempts one of the negotiators working for the return of R K Choudhary and
Barkhu Ram Varma have been able to contact the central leadership of the party who
assured them that the expelled leaders would be allowed to return to the party and work for the
uplift of dalits.

Former speaker Varma told this correspondent that he was keen to return to the BSP not
for serving his " own interest" but to uplift dalit community.He said during his 15 years
political stay in the dalit outfit he never thought about becoming MLA or minister."If he
had nursed any political ambition, he too would have joined the bandwagon of defectors
and latched on to the ruling party coalition ", said Varma. " The only remorse for him was
that he would not be able to serve the cause of dalits, if remained out of the BSP."

Varma and other leaders of the party had to differ their Delhi visit owing to the
bereavement in the family of R K Choudhary.However, as soos as Choudhry would be free from his
obligations at home, the duo will rush to Delhi, said Varma .Meawhile, the expelled
leaders have yet not been able to contact the BSP supremo Kanshi Ram, said Varma
